A Soldier's Prayer

I know you're tired, 
I know you're worn, I know you're torn 
You're losing all your hope 
'Cause you're a long way from home 
Oh, I know you're worried 
I know you're scared. 
I'd like to put my arms around you 
And tell you I care. 


Hope is in Heaven, not far away 
Just close your eyes, he hears what you say. 
Feel him around you, He's everywhere 
Reachin' to touch you, Know that he is there. 
Deep in the heart of a war, 
He hears a Soldier's Prayer. 


Ask and he'll protect you, guide where you go. 
Keep you from evil that tears at your soul 
Oh, speak to the Father, say what's on your mind 
It just takes a moment, if you'll take the time 


Hope is in Heaven, not far away 
Just close your eyes, he hears what you say. 
Feel him around you, He's everywhere 
Reachin' to touch you, Know that he's there. 
Deep in the heart of a war, 
He hears a Soldier's Prayer. 


Let's pray for hope, Let's pray for peace 
I pray for you and you pray for me 
I'll pray for heaven to hear what you say 
All of God's children will find out one day 
Deep in the heart of a war 
God heard a Soldier's Prayer.
